For Agents
Programmatically /v1/check_email, /v1/bulk. Covers 5 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to /v1/check_email, I want to /v1/bulk, Search for /v1/bulk/{job_id}, Find all bulk verification results
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Reacher, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

What is Reacher? Reacher is a robust, open-source email verification API service available as both a SaaS and self-hosted solution. The API exposes 5 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
Access Reacher communications resources via REST API
Patterns agents use Reacher API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Communications Operations
Use the Reacher to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 5 endpoints covering core functionality including /v1/check_email, /v1/bulk, /v1/bulk/{job_id}.
Call POST /v1/check_email to /v1/check_email
Automated Bulk Management
Automate bulk operations by combining multiple Reacher endpoints. Agents can /v1/bulk and then /v1/bulk/{job_id} in a single workflow.
Call POST /v1/bulk to /v1/bulk, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Reacher endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for '/v1/check_email', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Reacher apiKey credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., '/v1/check_email') and Jentic returns the matching Reacher operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Reacher integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using Reacher API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Reacher use?
The Reacher uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I /v1/check_email with the Reacher?
Yes. Use the POST /v1/check_email endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Reacher?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I /v1/check_email through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for '/v1/check_email'. Jentic returns the matching Reacher operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Reacher have?
The Reacher exposes 5 endpoints covering bulk, check_email, v0 operations.
